Does putting lemons under your armpits really cure hangovers?!


Question:

Does putting lemons under your armpits really cure hangovers?

I heard that it does, I have never tried it... actually, it sounds kind of foolish to me. Has anyone tried this or heard that it worked?

Quick update:
I heard this from a friend who was laughing about it and asked me if I believed it. I laughed and said, "well, let's ask Yahoo Answers!" At which point I had no idea there would be a bunch of people "hanging" out in the "Beer, Wine & Spirits" section who are anti-drinking. Also, just because a person asks a question like this, does not mean they are currently drunk, heard it when they were drunk, or are a drunk. If you have a huge problem with people drinking, this probably isn't the section you should be hanging out in.

Oh yeah, I hope the whole 2 points you gained out of being an a**hole in answering this question really paid off for you and brought delight to your day.

sounds like a foolish wives tale to me.

Haha! Never tried it....if anything, it'd probaby cure body odour for a day!

Never in my life heard of that one!!lol

well i really don't know this answer but all i got to say is try and see if it works i hope my advise works for you because i don't drink because I'm only 15 and all i got to say is i will never drink in my life time or if i really want to.

No but it makes you smell better cuz drunks stink

No, it doesn't work and is just an old wives' tale.

Were you drunk when you heard this? j/k I've never heard of it, but sounds crazy enough to work. Stranger things have happened. Now next time I am liquored up I will be thinking about lemon in the pits. Do you have to slice them? :)

I would probably say not because being drunk has to do with your brain..not your armpits.

nope-it just burns if you have moderately sensitive armpits!

instead of putting the lemons under your armpits, try eating the lemon. that should help a lot more than putting it under your armpits

No, but coffee and sleep cure hangovers! lol/jk

YEs it works, but only if you also rub peanut butter all over your head and soak your feet in oatmeal as well. 30 minutes like that and you'll be cured. no more hangover.

does using leaches to get rid of TB work?

does rubbing monkey blood on your nose get ride of acne work?

does wrapping your face in TP help get rid of your ugly head?

does standing on one leg in a bucket of cottage cheese help get rid of corns?

yeah. you should def try the lemons.


p.s. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/hangover...

kennyshoneypie, a hangover isnt only related to your brain.

duh.

NO try a couple Ibuprofens you will have better luck.
